Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: The mountain cable car overcomes a height of 300 meters and offers a ride of about 5 minutes. Over 100 years of history shape the old car that carries visitors up to spiritual temples.
Punti salienti: At halfway point the view opens up to Himeji Castle, which looks like a miniature replica. The cable car leads to Engyo-ji Temple where monks have meditated for 1,200 years and films have been shot.
Consigli da insider
- Comfortable shoes are recommended because you will be walking a lot on the mountain.
- Take the first train early in the morning to avoid long queues.
- Photograph the entrance to Engyo-ji Temple against the light for special effects.
- Don't be afraid of fog in the morning. It gives the landscape a mystical atmosphere.
